In 2009.Todd Bol put up a Little Free Library with the used boards.That was to show his respect and love for his mother,who loved reading very much.The idea quickly spread,and Todd made a wise decision to set up Little Free library as a non﹣profit (非营利的) organization with signs that read"Little Free Library:Take a Book,Return a Book." Today there are about100,000 little free libraries in over 100 countries and they have a great influence on people's life.
Studies have shown that books in the hands of children have a meaningful influence on improving literacy (识字).Little Free Library spreads the idea that literacy is of great importance and pushes people to learn and grow in their own literacy.
Little Free Library can greatly improve the relationship among neighbors and strangers,too. "Within just a few miles of me,there are many little libraries in folks' front yards,sharing the joy of reading with anyone who passes by.I just live in such a world where books,and the knowledge that comes with them,are highly valued." Catherine,an American woman,said, "I've even received a note of thanks from a gentleman named Esteban.He was especially thankful to have a "friend" on a cold night: ‘Thank you for this wonderful gift of a book.It's an excellent friend on this cold and lonely night.I'll return one in its place as soon as I can!'"
If each building has such a library,we will soon have a society that spends less time on the phones and more on the pages of a book.
